Erich's suggestion of dividing among those-who-jump and those-who-don't
is a very good idea too.  Since your warriors seem to have good
base attack ratings you probably won't have too much problem with
defensive waste's and TP's going all out.  7-7-7 is decent although dropping
the offensive effort would improve the defense (to 5 or so?).  I had a lunger
(champ) TV by going 3-9-3 Dodge in the 1st minute against offensives.
